Psychic Ability

It’s not rocket science. And it’s more than a little odd that people still continue to debate the issue.

We are what we think about and visualize on a sustained basis. Furthermore, we appear to create in the world around us events and circumstances that reflect our focused intent.

People who think good thoughts most of the time, and who choose to fill their minds with happy imagery and the best possibilities are often happy, successful, and healthy. You can find evidence of this statment every day in any town or village on planet earth.

Individuals who think bad thoughts most of the time, and who choose to fill their minds with gloom and doom, are often sad, impoverished, sickly, and miserable. You can find evidence of this statment every day in any town or village on planet earth.

We embody what we think and feel about. We become the thing that we envision most of the time.

What’s more, we tend to attract to us people who share our primary state of mind. And we manifest general circumstances that mirror our most intense thoughts.

It would appear the world is built from “thought substance”. And it’s very possible that scientists will one day have hard evidence of the existence of this etheric stuff that responds to our thinking.

But even if they don’t, and even if you prefer to resist the idea of thinking substance, how can anyone seriously refute the clear and powerful impact of sustained thought on the outcomes and events that are our life experiences?

One doesn’t even need to buy deeply into the idea of psychic ability to grasp the raw power of thought. And it doesn’t matter if we look at the issue from a mystical point of view or through mathematic algorithms, the end result is the same.

Unless you’re just trying hard to be obtuse, it must be clear that our thoughts have a direct impact on the world around us. In fact this statement is a bit silly…

It’s more accurate to say the world around us is our thoughts.

How we did we become so dense that we even question this fact? Why is it that people need to be helped back to the obvious?

Just mention anything expansive in the company of people who want to hide from the truth and watch them exchange “knowing” looks and eye rolls. It’s as if they’re saying “Well that’s not on the evening news, nor did we learn of it in grade school, so….”

The funny thing is skeptics have alarmingly little – if any – evidence to support a mechanistic world where our thoughts have no impact. And there’s a mountain of data, not to mention the intuitive experience of everyone who breathes, to support the clear fact that what we think becomes real in one form or another.

I’ve never met a person who hasn’t dreamed something and seen it come true at least once. And I don’t know anyone who can’t relate to the experience of being in a public place, thinking of someone they haven’t seen in a while, and then turning the corner and running into this individual.

We are our thoughts and our thoughts are us. I can’t think of a more simple way of stating it.

There are people who believe events in time are set, and closed off to change. In one of Deepok Chopra’s books he talks about Indian astrologers who write “threads” on pieces of bark; these writings are later read and matched with individuals who live long after the seers who wrote the threads are gone.

Incredibly these writings have accurately depicted in extreme, undeniable detail the events in the lives of those about who they were written. In essence, Indian seers write the life stories of people who will live long after them.

These writings have been accurate down to parents’ names, childhood events, and even time of death. It lends credence to the idea of predestination and a future that cannot be changed.

But what about the many premonitions of events that are avoided? Can it really be that life is set on a course we cannot alter?

It’s possible of course. But I also believe it’s possible that every new moment creates a potentially new future.

I think what we think and do changes the future. I could be wrong, and really what’s the big deal if I am?

But I can’t let go of the idea that our conscious choices help to shape our lives and the very world around us.
